Actually, it doesn't (unless it wants to).

The big fight about Java is one example.

Another example is trying to get IE up to speed on CSS. It doesn't seem to do some things it should.

I'll give you another (one of my pet peeves).

In the old msdos days, you used to exit programs with an alt-f-x. Most of MS programs still do that (word, excel, outlook etc). Not IE (alt-f-c). There were a couple other programs that did it differently also.

Everytime they come up with a new OS, they keep moving things around or rename things- just because they can. I agree that some things should be changed as they evolve. But there was no reason to change the name "Network Neighborhood" to "My Network Places" is one example (trivial, I'll admit) but there was no reason to change it. Next time it will probably be something else. Just something else to figure out.

My rant for the day.

Thanks,

Tom

Reminds me of the old joke:

How many Microsoft programmers does it take to change a lightbulb?

None - They just declare darkness the new standard...

And just to beat a dead horse.

MS does not support attribute selectors which is part of CSS2, but it does add it's own extensions (about 40 of them). Similar to the Java, where it added it's own extensions

Very irritating.

Thanks,

Tom
